I can see the next re-write occupying lots of time and taxpayers money already.

Scenario: A couple of Warriors and a C172 with low hour student pilots practising circuits and landing on 18 in light and variable conditions tending southerly. Perfect for short time solos. The runway direction is away from the adjacent town.

I join the circuit but the wind swings around to less than a couple of knots from the north. Everyone else legally and sensibly continues with circuits on 18.

I have no FM or POH so don't qualify for the exception and announce I'm changing direction even though the change in wind is probably very transient. PANIC!

Who writes theses things?

Why an "and" instead of an "or" in the exception?

Ridiculous!
